[Given the fact that it's been a good amount of time since Himeko's managed to get her bearings together and mull things over, she's finally going to make the decision to actually do something.

Impatience seems to win out in the end, it seems.]

Hi.

Many of you guys might not know me, and I might not know you. But it seems that we're all in the same boat, so I'd like to make amends to that. I'm Inaba, a high school graduate; nothing really special about me. And more importantly: I think that because of that, we should at least try and share any important information - probably in a meeting or something, in person. Although if you want to share things one-on-one, you can find me at classroom 3-B.

But just to make it so that this is a much more interesting post: how about we play 20 questions? But instead of guessing something - let's make it a 'getting to know each other' type of thing. So ask random questions about me. Ah, but I'm not obligated to answer any and all of your questions, alright? This is supposed to be fun, not weird.

[And if anybody does want to physically meet her, she'll be in classroom 3-B like she's said for a good part of the afternoon and evening hours; although people will most certainly find her getting up to walk around the hallways of the school to stretch and look around once again, but she doesn't seem to be looking out for anything in particular... this time. Although if she notices someone, she'll give a rather casual wave.

If she's seen during the silent hours, however: she'll wave quietly using her PDA in a gesture of Let's chat through this.]

one person, actually

big slab of blond beefcake who is mildly chauvinist but in a weirdly charming way, name of gawain

you seen him?

[dereban]

Haven't physically seen him, but he did reply to this post earlier. Is he really who he says he is?

[tempingforatlas]

yeeeeeep

i think i ended up summoning him here, actually. he was my Servant back home

[dereban]

That sort of thing is possible?

But what do you mean by 'servant'? It sounds like it's different from a butler if you're purposely capitalizing it like that.

[tempingforatlas]

hoooooooooooooboy this is complicated

do you want the short version the long version or the reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally long version

[dereban]

Whichever makes the most sense.

[tempingforatlas]

He's the literal Sir Gawain from Arthurian legend who I summoned with a magical ritual.

That's as simple as I can make it.

[dereban]

A magical ritual? What kind of ritual allows someone to summon legendary characters?

[tempingforatlas]

you are straying dangerously close to getting the really long version, inaba

[dereban]

Curiosity killed the cat.

[tempingforatlas]

basically, whenever you make enough of an impression in history or myth or whatever, you get put into this place called the throne of heroes once you die

the ritual i used essentially copies off parts of the information in the throne of heroes and prints a version of the original out in our world using a template called a "servant class" that's based on the attributes of the og

like gawain for example is an easy fit for the saber class since he was one of artoria's knights

[dereban]

Ah, that makes sense.

Maybe I should be glad I will never reach that, then.

[tempingforatlas]

yeah

i

honestly really hope nobody remembers me enough to put me up there with the stars

it'll be better that way

these are not deeds of honor, etc.

[dereban]

I suppose that's fair, isn't it?

[tempingforatlas]

if i get to have a choice, i'd rather be a human than a hero, yeah

[dereban]

I would always choose to be a human.

There is no other option for me.

[tempingforatlas]

being human is always a choice, honestly.

there's lots of reasons to make the choice to stop being one. i don't think i can take that path, though.

where i'm from, what's left of the world needs more humans, and i'm one of the only ones left.
